"Lengyue, what on earth is going on?"
The older male police officer asked, his expression stunned.
Xiao Lengyue recounted the entire incident, from discovering the three notorious criminals, pursuing them to this alley, their eyeballs exploding from three golden needles, and finally her apprehending them.
However, she omitted the part where she was captured by the three criminals and almost gang-raped, only stating that she was ambushed by them and saved at the critical moment by a mysterious expert who shot three golden needles.
"Heavens, is there such a powerful person in this world?"
"Yes, the lighting in this alley is so dim, you can't see far even if you stare with wide eyes. The visibility is at most three meters. According to what you said, the person who shot the golden needles from a distance to save you was at least ten meters away from you and the three criminals. Who is this mysterious expert?"
"Lengyue, did this mysterious expert leave after saving you? Without even showing his face to you?"
Xiao Lengyue nodded and replied, "I requested the mysterious expert to come out and meet me, as I wanted to thank him in person, but I received no response."
"That's not right. When we rushed over, we surrounded the entire alley, but we didn't see anyone suspicious."
A young male police officer raised his doubts.
The older male police officer frowned and said, "No, this master who could save Lengyue and accurately burst the eyes of three notorious criminals with three feather-light embroidery needles from over ten meters away, his power far surpasses the scope of ordinary people. With his terrifying skills, it wouldn't be difficult for him to evade all of us and leave."
"Who saved me? Why didn't he reveal himself?"
Xiao Lengyue frowned and asked herself.
"Xiao Lengyue, you're really too reckless!"
Police Chief Wang Haiyang arrived, walked quickly to Xiao Lengyue, and roared, trembling with anger.
Xiao Lengyue was the biological daughter of Xiao Yuanshan, the Commander of the Da Chang City Military Region. If anything happened to her, Wang Haiyang wouldn't be able to withstand Xiao Yuanshan's wrath.
"Director Wang, I'm fine."
Xiao Lengyue said with an embarrassed smile.
Wang Haiyang was furious and said, "Fine? Fortunately, you're fine! But you were truly reckless. With the enemy in the dark and us in the light, and out-numbered, you should have just tracked the enemy instead of revealing yourself and pursuing them, and you shouldn't have ventured into unfamiliar territory. If it weren't for the mysterious expert saving you tonight, not only would you have been in mortal danger, but it would have also implicated the reputation of the entire police department. How would I explain to my superiors? How would I explain to the public? How would I explain to your father?"
"Oh, Uncle Wang, I know I was wrong. I promise I won't dare to do it again. I'll write you a 3,000-character self-criticism when I get back."
Xiao Lengyue, knowing she had narrowly avoided a major disaster, said to Wang Haiyang in a cajoling tone.
Wang Haiyang indeed had no way to deal with Xiao Lengyue, as her father was the commander of the Da Chang City Military Region and held far greater power than him. After some thought, he said:
"There must not be a second instance of such an incident, otherwise, I will strip you of your position and assign you only to do document work in the office every day, absolutely forbidden from apprehending criminals outside."
"Understood."
Xiao Lengyue nodded repeatedly, looking obedient and compliant.
"Furthermore, we must find this mysterious expert. We need to search the entire city and contact authoritative media for reports. We must do our best to find him online and offline. This person is a hero to our entire Da Chang City. He subdued these three notorious criminals, protecting the safety of the people of the entire nation. He is a great hero!"
Wang Haiyang commanded.
"Yes, Director Wang, please rest assured, we will definitely find this mysterious expert."
The older male police officer nodded and accepted the order.
At this moment, Chu Lingtian, on another street not far away, glanced at the small iron box he carried. With only a few golden needles left, he thought about replenishing them. He then took out a cigarette, lit it, and placed it in his mouth. With his hands in his pockets, he walked forward.
